Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

our muscles atrophy.

Any time we hear "AI did this and this", it's not proof programs are becoming sentient, but that the humans deploying said AI did this (which is generally failing to deploy proper sandboxing measures to prevent an AI from going against security) It's not the AI that's rogue, it's the company

fun fact for the NY Times editors: if a computer program does what you programmed it to do, "going rogue" is not an accurate way to describe that event. Words should probably still mean something at the paper of record.

SD är valets stora förlorare. SD backar mest och är inte längre näst störst. Faktum är att detta är SD:s tredje nationella valförlust i rad (EU, kyrkan, riksdagen). Extremhögerns framgång är ingen naturlag. Och nu lär väl Åkesson snart lämna.
